Troubleshooting
Vest feels too bulky
Ensure you are wearing the correct size. The vest is designed for layering; try wearing it over lighter base layers.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Check for fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Lubricating the zipper with a graphite pencil or a specialized zipper lubricant can help.
Insulation seems less effective over time
Follow the recommended care instructions for washing and drying. Over time, washing can compress insulation; ensure it is not washed with excessive heat or harsh detergents.
Seams are fraying
Trim any loose threads carefully with scissors. For significant fraying, professional repair may be necessary.
